A friend of the Young Mems Institute ask

moved out of the State House some years

no. The Institute moved into the State

Tie Anthracite Coal Trade.

The condition of the anthracite codl trade
has not changed materially during the past
week. The line and city trade continues to
absorb the greater part of the coal being
sent to market. TidewatGf shipments of
coal from Port Richmond are still confined
to the cargoes going to the East in the
Reading Company's steam colliers, schoon-
ers being very scarce there owing to the ice
in the harbOrs, and consequently freights
have been adyancsd to 50 10 Boston, with
few vessels offering. Anthracite continues
to accumulate slowly at Port Richmond,
the Reading Company reported its total
stock of coal at that shipping point on
Saturday at $4,000 tons. At New York
the anthracite trade is still dlstitrbed by
the strikes at the shipping piers in that
vieihity, though s6ihe u the companies are
now tiiovins considerable coal. 1t Is to be
hoped that wisdom will prevail there, and
that both the striking employees and the
shippers can be induced TO make mutual
concessions which will SPEEDILY end all the
difficulties. The outlook for the spring
business In anthracite Is very promising!
At neItly all points the stocks of coal are
reported low, and tho increasing demand
for coal gives PrcInise of better Wholesale
prices III the rear future: There is but
little coal in first hands, and still less in
second hands, while consumers have for
year or more past been purchasing their
coal as necessity required

The County Superintendency.

Mr.. EDIToR,-In my former corhmuni-
cation to the ADVOCATE, / endeAvored to
show that Mr.. Horace u. Heydt should be
elected County Superintendent solely on
his merits. He is confessedly the best quail
ilied teacher in the county; and he COM
bines natural intellectual power with good
common sense. He has enjoyed superior
educational advantages, and is free from
that contemplate conceit and egotismwhich
characterizes SO many of less ability. 1t is
of the highest Importance that this Office
should be filled by the best qualified man
available for the position, and it behooves
the proper authorities to elect the best
qualified man regardless of all other con-
siderations.
1t was hinted ih last weeks ADVOCATE
that judging from the tenor of my former
communicated, one might infer that the
present Incumbent will not be candidate
for reelection. Whether he is candidate
or not is immaterial. W. urge the election
of Mr.. Heydt solely on account of his pre-
eminent fitness for the position.
am inclined TO Seltsye that our present
County Superintendent will DOT be a car
didate for reelection, His law business is
increasing rapidly, he has had cases at
ecart. he is solicitor for the borough of
Lehighton; secretary and attorney, think,
of q building and loan association; insur-
ance agent, ETC., etc. Now, Mr.. Editor,
may ask how hitch time he may have
left to devote to the important duties OF his
office as County Superintendent? If we
reason little by analogy may VIC not as
sumo that his other business viii s6oh
occupy all of his time, and, in the event of
his reelection, he might appoint deputy
county superintendent who might not be
acceptable to the teachers and directors?
The teachers know that the present IN
cumbent gives great deal of time to mat
ters outside of his official duties as County
Superintendent. and they feel that they are
not supported by teacher. TEACHER,

neighbors say they are a very quarrelsome
couple They threatened to burn down
Daniel Moran's house. The latter had
warrants served out for the arrest of Carr
and his wife. Constable S. A. Lake start
ed out to serve them. When he arrived at
the Carr household he was met at the door
by Mrs. Carr, who at once comprehended
his mission. Without waiting to say a
word she picked up big iron bar and be-
gan to strike Lake with it, The Constable
tried to evade the blows, but was helpless,
He ran Into another room, but the woman
followed him. With one terrific blow she
felled him to the floor. 1t was ndw a
question of life or death for the officer of
the law. He pulled his revolver and fired
at the ceiling, thinking he could scare his
assailant, but she wouldn't SCARE. He
then flied ball into her neck Wounded
as she was she continued to belay the pros

which took effect In the kohah's breast,

more than the ordinary movement. Firms
are in good shape for the incoming buyers,
and In some lines Of dry goods orders are
plents.
The -four market continues qHist.
The line and city trade continue to absorb
the greater part of the coal now sent to
market, and anthracite continues to &C
cumulate slowly at Port Richmond, the
Reading Company reported its total stock
there at 64;0OO-tohs. The bituminous coal
tidde cofitinues unchanged. Shippers cam
not meet the demand. In consequence
prices remain very firm.
The passage of the Interstate Commerce
bill has apparently but little effect on the
stock market. The market is reported
steady.
In the iroii trade the past week has been
somewhat exciting. Inquiries are numer-
Gus. The claim is made that production
is equal to actual requirements. The SELL
ing price is above the nominal price. Those
who must buy are compelled to pay higher
figures than qIoted by those WHO have

TNliCS Discussed Over The River"

When we pause for moment and re-
Gecton the problem uppermost and fore
most upon the blackboard of public thought
the labor problem-we are taken back to
the birthuf the organization, which brought
forth the thought, sometime in the year
1869, when the spirit of war which had so
terribly agitated the North, South, East
and West was not yet wholly euieted and
following its course carefully through the
years that span the space between then and
now, we are naturally impressed with the
wonderful growth, the wonderful progress
of the organization which unitas in the
bonds of eternal friendship the masses who
earn their breadby the sweat of their brow.
About eighteen years ago organized labor
represented orie branch of industry; to-day
It takes In all the trades and professions of
the world, and its influence and power is
felt in every city, village and hamlet with
in the borders of our thirty.six States in
Guiding the Territories. Yet, looking at
the organization from somewhat of logi-
cal or philosophical standpoint, there is
nothing so wonderful, so grand and com
manding about the organization of the
Knights of Labor. 1t has been said, and
truly, too, that for every particular great
event In the history of the world men and
opportunities are presented to successfully
combat anc surmount the difficulties, great
or small, no fhattef What or how compli-
Gated they may be. AS Washington was
produced to Danish the British from our
shores and enforce TIE Declaration of In
dependence; making this land of free
and equal rights to all; as Lincoln was
produced during time when secession
agitated our States and war, with all its
conflicting horrors, burst upon us, to be
the GnAssGinfhg figurehead of our nation
and quietly and firmly enforce the laws and
best Interests of people who were up in
arms against each other; as Grant, a Nc
Ctelian, Hancock and other noble leaders
sprurg up to guide a noble army Oh to vic
tory and the freedom OF forty thousand
slaves, so will man be produced who will
solve ttYo problems which agitate the labor
ing masses and brings on the conflicts be-
tween labor and capital, from which the
former always retire the losers. This mod
as operdhdt OF centralizing the iaboring
masses is but repetition of the successful
means employed by the prisoners and
slaves under a rich and autocratfc King,
read of in Greek history The ten-
tralizing of the laboring masses is in pro-
gress now under the able and comprehen-
sive leadership of Grand Master Workman
Powderly, and as success attended the
slaves Of monarchy hundreds of years
ago, so will success attend the efforts of
more advanced and Comprehensive people
of to-day. The discords produced by the
hypocritical policy pursued by the less con-
servative Of the members of the organiza-
tioh, will fade as the day OF final victory
draws nigh and harmony will reign su-
preme. Organize, agitate and educate, and
do it we'll.
